Inhibition of Subsets of G Protein-coupled Receptors by Empty Mutants of G Protein α Subunits in Go, G11, and G16 [PDF]
, 2000 We previously reported that the xanthine nucleotide binding Goα mutant, GoαX, inhibited the activation of Gi-coupled receptors. We constructed similar mutations in G11α and G16α and characterized their nucleotide binding and receptor interaction.

Neurobiology of the Edg2 Lysophosphatidic Acid Receptor
Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 2001 Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA, 1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphate) is a well-known lipid growth factor that is found widely in various tissues including brain and is reported to drive different intracellular signaling pathways. In the nervous system, LPA studies have drawn many neuroscientists' attention because it has some actions related to neurogenesis ...

Lysophospholipid receptors in vertebrate development, physiology, and pathology
Journal of Lipid Research, 2009 Lysophospholipid (LP) research has experienced a period of renaissance with the discovery of the lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) receptors in the late 1990s.

Lysophosphatidic Acid Inhibits Adipocyte Differentiation via Lysophosphatidic Acid 1 Receptor-dependent Down-regulation of Peroxisome Proliferator-activated Receptor γ2 [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2005 Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive phospholipid acting via specific G protein-coupled receptors that is synthesized at the extracellular face of adipocytes by a secreted lysophospholipase D (autotaxin). Preadipocytes mainly express the LPA(1) receptor subtype, and LPA increases their proliferation.

LPA5 is abundantly expressed by human mast cells and important for lysophosphatidic acid induced MIP-1β release. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is a bioactive lipid inducing proliferation, differentiation as well as cytokine release by mast cells through G-protein coupled receptors. Recently GPR92/LPA5 was identified as an LPA receptor highly expressed by cells of the

Role of lysophosphatidic acid and its receptors in health and disease: novel therapeutic strategies
Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy, 2021 Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is an abundant bioactive phospholipid, with multiple functions both in development and in pathological conditions. Here, we review the literature about the differential signaling of LPA through its specific receptors, which ...

Ginseng Gintonin Contains Ligands for GPR40 and GPR55
Molecules, 2020 Gintonin, a novel ginseng-derived glycolipoprotein complex, has an exogenous ligand for lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) receptors. However, recent lipid analysis of gintonin has shown that gintonin also contains other bioactive lipids besides LPAs, including
